Update on Caitlin

As many of you have probably heard by now, Caitlin had an accident yesterday when she fell from a young horse. She is in the hospital with a fractured skull but she is in stable condition and there is a positive outlook for her recovery.

Poor Caitlin! I feel like every time she comes out on top, something
happens. She was on the sidelines with Hoku this time last year, after the fire, and here she is
again. We are devastated for
her, but she is going to be fine. Obviously Boyd has lost his assistant trainer
for a while too; she is a big part of our business and we can’t wait for her to
come back. In the meantime, while Caitlin recovers, Hoku can go into dressage boot camp with me, which will be really good for her, and Boyd is going to keep
Remington going, so Caitlin's horses will be ready and waiting for her return!

Caitlin,You have your whole wonderful -and well deserved- life with horses in front of you. Take this time to rest and reflect on how amazingly you are turning out to be. Years from now, this bump will be no more than a footnote in your life. Read some good book, as you may never again have time for it, and visualize your perfect ride.
